The ninja school started.
The new era's beginning slowly opened its story. Naruto, who should have waited until he was nine to attend the ninja school, started earlier because of Jiraiya's teaching.
And, maybe because the world wanted it, Sasuke also entered the ninja school early.
You should know that none of the Konoha Twelve was there yet.
Two sudden genius kids, their first look at each other, made sparks.
Naruto was different from the story. The Third Hokage was very good to Naruto. He dressed him like a smaller version of the Fourth Hokage. Plus, with that carefree smile, he was like a sunny, cheerful boy.
Sasuke still had a proud, cold face. That was the Uchiha family's way.
And this was the kind of face that attracted girls of this age the most.
But these two only had eyes for each other. So, Hinata and Sakura were just the side girls!
Naruto and Sasuke were the real couple, the parents of Boruto.
Uchiha Itachi slightly bowed to Jiraiya and smiled, "Jiraiya-sama, hello. Sasuke mustn't be rude. Say hello to your classmates."
Jiraiya laughed, showing the awkwardness of taking care of a kid for the first time. "Haha, Naruto, why are you so rude? Say hello to your classmates. What do I usually tell you?"
Naruto and Sasuke turned their heads away at the same time. Naruto muttered, "Oh, this one is huge. Ah, that one is huge. That's how you teach me."
You have to say, he really is one of the Sannin. He was fast and grabbed Naruto's mouth, looking around nervously, covered in cold sweat.
"Hahahaha..."
Itachi smiled, holding Sasuke's hand and walking away. "I didn't hear anything, Jiraiya-sama."
At the opening ceremony, the Third Hokage used his words to talk about the greatness of the Will of Fire. Naruto was interested in listening... if he didn't have two big bumps on his head.
In this very serious situation, the Third Hokage said something that shocked everyone, "Where leaves dance, fire burns. The fire will keep lighting the village and let new leaves grow.
So, I've decided to step down as the Third Hokage. Jiraiya, are you willing to be the Fifth Hokage of Konoha..."
Everyone saw a giant toad, as big as a mountain, with a smoking pipe, flying straight towards the southwest in a blaze of fire.
Naruto set Jiraiya's pants on fire.
Jiraiya's famous warning floated in the air, "Old man, are you doing human things? You're trying to force me to do this!"
Swain, in Konoha's sacred place, saw the toad Gamabunta flying away. He was confused. He looked with his all-seeing eyes and laughed.
"This Jiraiya is really something... But he's right. Only a fool would take that Hokage job, which is hard work and gets you nothing."
After being happy, it was time to do homework. Swain was working hard to become a Sage as soon as possible, so he could be safe sooner. In this world of Hokage, the story kills people too easily. Without the body of a Sage, you'd be too embarrassed to show your face later.
Five minutes later...
Hatake Kakashi, with the Third Hokage's order, this time remembered to be respectful. He bowed to Swain and said, "Lord Swain, the Third Hokage asks you to take over as the Fifth Hokage. We'll discuss the details in the Hokage building..."
On this day
A toad and a fox flew away from Konoha from two different directions, leaving many people confused in the wind.
Kakashi silently looked at the order in his hand and muttered, "Should I do it?"
Never mind, I should just go back to the Hokage building and report.
Before Kakashi could reply, the Third Hokage had already seen Nine Tails running away, followed by a group of Root ninja.
He knew that Swain had definitely run away too.
"Sigh!" The Third Hokage sighed and said to himself, "I don't know what Danzo is thinking. What can you do by chasing after him? Take Nine Tails back?
Is the Hokage position really that unwanted?"
He remembered when he was young, countless friends of his age were moving towards a common goal. In the end, he was the best and ruled Konoha.
Why did everything change with the next generation... No, that's not right. Swain is my senior, isn't he?
Is this passion only every other generation?
"The old man is having a hard time! I'll hold on for a few more years. I don't believe you won't take the job even if I die."
Even I don't want to be Hokage anymore...
Danzo was stamping his feet and cursing somewhere. If none of you want to do it, can't you ask me?
Just ask once! Just ask me once, even just one word!
